Please use Connect site to submit your product suggestions

דיון כללי

The Windows Home Server team has re-enabled the Connect site, so you can new search through the existing suggestions and submit new product improvement ideas via the Connect site. You can also vote and rate other people's suggestions. For now, we will leave the Suggestions Forum open here, but if you really want your idea to be looked at and reviewed by the Windows Home Server team, then you should be using http://connect.microsoft.com/WindowsHomeServer. The new product ideas end up in the product team's issue tracking database, the more votes and the higher the rating ....

Please Do NOT Submit Bugs with the Suggestions form - please use the Windows Home Server Software forum on this site to get help troubleshooting issues or call support

Please Do NOT ask for more product keys, free software, etc. via the Connect site - these suggestions should stay on this forum - as they have nothing to do with improving the product.

Please use the Connect site for ideas and suggestions for enhancing the RTM version of the product, and please SEARCH before posting a new idea. Duplicates cause a lot of unnecessary work !!

Here is the text from the Windows Home Server Connect site:

Review, Rate, Vote and Submit New Product Suggestions

The Windows Home Server team is interested in your suggestions and ideas of how to make the product better. We rely on the community to vote and rate these suggestions to help the team prioritize what is important.

Please take the time to search for existing suggestions prior to submitting a new idea, as it is easier to tabulate the votes if there aren't a bunch of duplicate / similar suggestions.

Note:The Windows Home Server team reviews these suggestions on a periodic basis to understand the top ideas from the community. Due to the volume of feedback, the team cannot commit to respond to each suggestion.

All of the existing suggestions have already been analyzed and incorporated into the large "wish list" for future versions of Windows Home Server. The Windows Home Server team is getting together for a 2-day offsite next week to work and work and work through these lists feature area by feature area to get a first cut at prioritizing a list of features.

These lists will then be tested via quantitative customer research of both existing home server users (hopefully, they will be easy to find) and people that do not yet have a home server, but do have a broadband connection and 2 or more active home computers.

You do not need to re-enter your suggestions - however, we will keep track of the vote counts on the existing ones.
